There is way too much love for a guy who had one good start in three years.
My point is that he has proven to be a poor QB about 5-10 times more than he has proven to be a decent QB. Let's see how he plays from behind next week. He has proven time and time again that when under pressure he makes bad football decisions.
Not really. For some reason everyone can only point out the bad in sanchez. He gets no love past or present. He won playoof games and took a team with a horrific offense coach and poor system to several afc championship games.
Nobody is claiming he is league mvp and may very well struggle in gbay as do most nfl qb's in that environment. The problem is that sanchez haters will only judge him on his mistakes...when he plays well he gets zero credit.
He is finally in a winning system and has competant coaching. That will help
You can be as critical as you want. If he plays well next week you can say "he's had 2 good games in 3 years"...if he plays poorly tou can say "I told ya so". Either way your talking points will work out for you.
But there are always guys like willie who just point to the butt fumble because that's what they do and all they know....but objective people understand he was with the most inept offensive coaching staff in decades...and now that he has a quality staff...he will be better. Again,not an mvp but a quality starter and better than Foles. That injury will be a blessing for this team.

I wouldn't give him any credit for the Panthers game, they are 1 of the worst Ds in the league.
Eagles have 1 of the best OLs, RBs and good WRs and the GOAT offensive mind. It is just a really nice setup for Sanchez.
He has gotta be pretty excited about it all, gets to go back to fucking hot celebrities if he keeps it up

Free-agent quarterback Mark Sanchez has been suspended for the first four games of the 2018 season for violating the NFL's performance-enhancing drug policy, the league announced.
Sanchez acknowledged in an Instagram post Friday that he had tested positive for a banned substance.
"I was blind-sided by the news and I want to say unequivocally that I have never cheated or attempted to gain a competitive advantage by using a banned performance enhancing substance," he wrote.
Sanchez blamed the positive test on an "unknowing supplement contamination." He said he had clean tests 30 days before and 12 days after his positive test.
Even so, Sanchez said he accepts the suspension and will "look forward to getting back onto the field this season."
